Critical Thinking Unversity League TablesAll of the skill universities are meant to be teaching students on full display on their front lawns and they call in politicians and law enforcement rather than celebrating their students. It might be time to use your own critical thinking to decide what league tables are really based on? Student celebration, initiative, political change and welfare are not top priorities.
Kindness is not a disease - you just don't expect or know how to play the games of insecure unkind people This book is based on the best fictional character I've ever read to bring together my own school experiences of bullying, isolation and the depths of where this can take you too.

How comparison crushes usThe most destructive habit that holds us back and that we can land ourselves in at any stage of our development.. no one is immune ... even me!
Forget blanket statements on technology being 'bad' for us ... it's how we use the tool for our well-being which determines our mental health. We can't assume that if you have a smartphone you have anxiety, depression and concentration challenges.

Change your practices for good well-being, engagement and a learning tool - and then change your parents!

Think time to perform efficiently One of the ways we perform more effectively and efficiently is to press pause. To allow ourselves to passively think about what we desire to create - to do - to answer. To do tasks in our mind and body before we ever sit down to do them!
